Deltona Commission approves $125,000 settlement with former deputy city manager Stacy Kiflo
Summary
The Deltona City Commission unanimously approved resolution 2025-168 to settle claims by former deputy city manager Stacy Kiflo for $125,000, with the city's insurance carrier covering $120,000 after a $5,000 city deductible; the settlement includes a general release extinguishing known and unknown claims.
The Deltona City Commission on second reading approved resolution 2025-168, resolving claims by former deputy city manager Stacy Kiflo for a total settlement of $125,000. City Attorney read the resolution’s whereas clauses, which say Kiflo resigned on Dec. 1, 2023, later asserted whistleblower protections and alleged loss of wages and benefits, and filed suit in Florida’s Seventh Judicial Circuit (case no. 202311761-CIDL).
According to the resolution read into the record, Kiflo agreed to execute a general release extinguishing past, present and future claims arising from her resignation for the $125,000 amount, “inclusive of all costs and fees.” The city’s insurance carrier, identified in the reading as PGCS, will pay $120,000 after the city’s deductible of $5,000. City Attorney explained the amount was recommended by the carrier following mediation.
Commissioner Novick moved to approve resolution 2025-168; Commissioner Howington seconded. The clerk took a roll-call vote and the presiding officer announced the motion passed unanimously.
The resolution states the payment is intended to avoid the uncertainties and expense of continued litigation; it also directs implementation consistent with the terms read into the record. No public comments were made during the item.
Next steps: the settlement will be implemented as provided in the resolution and the case information remains part of the public record.
